My name is Rami, and I’m the brother of Roodin who was under Christina’s care. Christina went above and beyond her role to ensure that my brother's needs and goals were met. She was always attentive, caring, and proactive in making sure everything was in place to assist him. Both Christina and the support workers were kind, supportive, and regularly checked in on Roodin. He was always happy, comfortable, and trusted Christina and her team completely.

FAQ's
Frequently asked questions for quick answers
Hare are some common questions we receive which you may find helpful!
What is the NDIS and am I eligible?
The NDIS is Australia's way of ensuring people with disabilities get the support they need to live their best life. Think of it like a personalised support toolkit that creates an individual plan based on your loved one's unique needs and goals, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. You may be eligible if your family member has a permanent disability that significantly affects their daily life, is under 65 when first applying, and is an Australian citizen or permanent resident. The NDIS looks at how the disability impacts your loved one's ability to participate in everyday activities, not just the diagnosis itself. We're here to support you through this process and help you understand if the NDIS is right for your family.
How do I know what services I need?
Start with your loved one's daily life and dreams - the services should flow naturally from there. Think about what a typical day looks like, where the challenging moments are, and what would make life easier or more enjoyable for your family member. We take time to really understand your family's unique situation. Our Support Coordinators sit down with you to map out what matters most and help you see how different services could work together. There's no pressure to figure it all out at once - we believe the best support plans evolve as we get to know each other better.
What does it cost and how do I pay?
If you're approved for the NDIS, the scheme pays for your services - there are no upfront costs or bills sent to your family. Think of your NDIS plan like a dedicated account that's been set up specifically for your loved one's support needs. We work directly with the NDIS to claim payment for the services we provide, so you don't need to handle invoices or chase reimbursements. You stay in control by choosing which services to use and when, while we handle all the administrative details so your family can focus on what matters most.
Do you help people who don't have an NDIS plan yet?
Absolutely - we're here for your family at every stage of the journey, including before you have an NDIS plan. We know that navigating the NDIS system can feel overwhelming, especially when you're already caring for a loved one with complex needs. We can help you understand the NDIS process, prepare for assessments, and gather the right information to support your application. Many of our strongest relationships began during this phase, and we're committed to investing in your family's success from day one, no matter where you are in the process.
What makes Thrive's approach to care differently?
You'll work directly with our founders, Christina and Bruce, who are hands-on Support Coordinators - not just business owners who've stepped back from the day-to-day care. This means the passion and values that drove them to start Thrive are what you'll experience in every interaction with your family. Christina brings deep compassion from her nursing background in palliative care and the profound experience of caring for her own father, while Bruce combines his keen understanding of what people truly need (honed through years in customer service) with genuine heart for community support developed through his humanitarian work with the Salvation Army. Together, they don't just provide services - they build meaningful relationships where your family's unique culture, faith, and story are seen, honored, and celebrated as you work toward your loved one's dreams and goals.
